Promote Participation

We actively champion the benefits martial arts have on health, personal safety and wellbeing. A big part of what we do is help educate the public on what martial arts is really about, and help them find a safe place to learn.

Protect & Develop Martial Arts

We work with instructors, schools, clubs and other organisations to protect the valuable contributions martial arts have to offer communities, and to preserve the history and legacy for generations to come.

Championing Self Defence & Personal Protection Skills

We know the devastating impact being a victim of crime or violence has on everybody. That's why we work with communities and coaches to promote self protection skills for everybody as well as better safeguarding skills in martial arts.

An exclusive, 100% free place to learn more about martial arts, find registered clubs, buy equipment and clothing, connect with other martial artists, get involved and more.

Learn more about martial arts and how it can help your child. Meet other parents, get expert advise on keeping your children safe and helping them develop, find vetted local clubs and more. All 100% free.

We've spent more than halve a decade working closely with schools and colleges, helping them understand qualifications and checks a martial arts instructor should hold, and how better to understand the valuable impact it can have on a student's learning.

We're keen to work with schools, colleges and universities to promote healthier lifestyle choices, better mental discipline and self protection for children of all ages. We can also assist completely free of charge in all matters of offering advice and consultation for schools looking to bring martial arts into their gates.
